In a pinch use the fuel line but leave it long enough to make a gentle bend that doesn't kink. It'll end up looking like a pretzel. This will get you buy until you get to a dealer and purchase the correct $8 hose.

Or you can get a right angle for about 4 bucks. Even if you have some pipe lying around the house that is the same size thats got an angle in it, cut it and clamp the hose on each end.

At the NP Winter Retreat this year, Scotts Turvo rreturn hose started to leak, so I took it off and wrapped it in BANZAI WRAP and its still holding.
